Previously, these cards were supported by the lnc driver (and they
still are, but the pcn driver will claim them first), which is fine
except the lnc driver runs them in 16-bit LANCE compatibility mode.
The pcn driver runs these chips in 32-bit mode and uses the RX alignment
feature to achieve zero-copy receive. (Which puts it in the same
class as the xl, fxp and tl chipsets.) This driver is also MI, so it
will work on the x86 and alpha platforms. (The lnc driver is still
needed to support non-PCI cards. At some point, I'll need to newbusify
it so that it too will me MI.)
The Am79c978 HomePNA adapter is also supported.
ahc->unit is depricated and will be going away as soon as the Linux
driver catches up. In the FreeBSD case, it is always initialized to 0
and this caused some strangeness in registering multiple ahc controllers
with CAM.

The recent problems with sshd were due to sshd reassigning
`environ' when setenv() thinks it owns it. setenv() subsequently
realloc()s the new version of environ and *boom*
Wakeup event is generated by power button and/or sleep button on some
laptops but this also generates SCI interrupt, and shutdown the system
as result. So this kind of mechanism is introduced so that acpi
driver ignore given events for certain period.
of AML interpreter.
- Delete and cleanup a lot of almost duplicated code in kernel/userland.
- Add new common functions for kernel/userland code.
aml_adjust_readvalue(), aml_adjust_updatevalue(),
aml_region_handle_alloc(), aml_region_handle_free() and
aml_region_io().
- Add primitive functions for both versions of kernel/userland in order to
have shared code as much as possible.
aml_region_read_simple(), aml_region_write_simple(),
aml_region_prompt_read(), aml_region_prompt_write() and
aml_region_prompt_update_value().
- Consider update rule and access type in field flags. Also add a lot of
definitions for the flags.
- Fix bugs on bit manipulation for read/write operations.
- Fix bugs on IndexField I/O part. Also add workaround for temporary
object corruption during StoreOp interpretation.
- Include <stdlib.h> and <string.h> as needed for prototypes
- Remove unneeded "error" variables
o Make cap_init() use cap_clear() instead of bzero()
Obtained from: TrustedBSD Project
o Implementations will remain in the seperately distributed capability
patch until the cap_t type changes are synchronized.

IBM's DPTA and DTLA series of drives (no other disk vendors are known
to support this) on non-Promise controllers (promise controllers lockup
when given the tagged queuing specific commands).
It gives especially master/slave comboes about 5% better performance.
Add support for the Promise ATA100 OEM chip (pdc20265)
Add support for the Cyrix 5530
Change the way status is read from the drives, use the alternate
status reg when possible.
Better support for DEVFS, the acdXtY devices are now created when needed.
Lots of little cleanups.
which hides the 'hole' in the minor bits.
Introduce unit2minor() to do the reverse operation.
Fix some some make_dev() calls which didn't use UID_* or GID_* macros.
Kill the v_hashchain alias macro, it hides the real relationship.
Introduce experimental SI_CHEAPCLONE flag set it on cloned bpfs.
possible to have different probe/attach semantics between the two
systems and yet still use the same driver for both.
Compatibility methods for OLDCARD drivers. We use these routines to make
it possible to call the OLDCARD driver's probe routine in the context that
it expects. For OLDCARD these are implemented as pass throughs to the
device_{probe,attach} routines. For NEWCARD they are implemented such
such that probe becomes strictly a matching routine and attach does both
the old probe and old attach.
compat devices should use the following:
/* Device interface */
DEVMETHOD(device_probe), pccard_compat_probe),
DEVMETHOD(device_attach), pccard_compat_attach),
/* Card interface */
DEVMETHOD(card_compat_match, foo_match), /* newly written */
DEVMETHOD(card_compat_probe, foo_probe), /* old probe */
DEVMETHOD(card_compat_attach, foo_attach), /* old attach */
This will allow a single driver binary image to be used for both
OLDCARD and NEWCARD.
Drivers wishing to not retain OLDCARD compatibility needn't do this.
ep driver minorly updated.
sn driver updated more than minorly. Add module dependencies to allow
module to load. Also change name to if_sn. Add some debugging code.
attempt to fix the cannot allocate memory problem I'd been seeing.
Minor formatting nits.
